Op here is my 2 cent " Two hands working can do more than a thousand clasped in prayer "

Please check my posts and tell me where I asked anyone not to work, or even implied that, am waiting...

Happy Easter everyone, may the Almighty overlook your character flaws and shortcomings and grant you your heart's desires.
Endeavour to seek the face of the Lord Jesus in every challenge you have, he has promised to always answer us.

Pray and work towards the Answer.

Ummm...well some of his messages are very powerful. I used to be obsessed with the late Bishop Eddie Long, Bishop Creflo Dollar, Joel Osteen and Joyce Meyer too.
I was young in the faith and they (the ministers) served their purpose at the time.
But as I have grown, I don't want to get too comfortable with the "prosperity gospel" always being at the fore-front of the sermons...
I need to study this Word more deeply and really know what this Christian walk is all about...and a lot of it requires self-sacrifice.
I gotta know this Word more for myself.

WOW!!! You are doing something most Christians do not do these days, that's studying the Bible themselves, most people just rely on their Pastor, not knowing they can train themselves in spiritual things and become greater than the pastor, I see so many people asking for "Revelations" from pastors, if only they would take their time to read the Bible, they would know God is eager to reveal things to them personally, but its like you said, sacrifice is required.
